Oh Fuck, not another one
A new year I mean. Sitting here watching Jools Holland’s Hootenanny, as is the modern tradition, with Martha Reeves and the Vandellas singing “Dancing In the Streets” and drinking a drop of Laphroaig that BritInCalifornia had to leave behind (and that the cleaner hid in the dark recesses of a kitchen cabinet). Other acts on the Hootenanny, Annie Lennox & Dave Edmonds = great, Duffy OK, but Adele why? When you have Ruby Turner why Adele? Why? Why Why?
And… Lily Allen is gorgeous and Hold Steady rock. And… Chris Farlowe still does the best version of “Handbags and Gladrags” And….astrologers are such fucking tossers. And…. the Ting Tings are kewl.

I wish you a good new year, with lots of opportunity for music, hikes and alcohol. Not necessarily in that order.
